  • Clinical Audit Tool

    CAT allows you to: provide high quality patient care, be in complete control of your own patient information, identify patients in high risk target groups, improve practice revenue and meet accreditation requirements... and that’s just the beginning!

  • Provide high quality patient care

    Identify your patients with incomplete information eg those with no allergy or smoking status recorded

    Identify your patients who have either not had a pap smear recorded, or no pap smear in the last 4 years

    Identify the drug treatment profile of CHD patients within the practice population, those CHD patients
    with high blood pressure or those who have not had a BP reading in the last 12 months

    Identify your diabetic patients with a HbA1c > 7% or who have not had a HbA1c in the last 12 months

    Target your patients on more than 5 medications to offer a home medicines review.

  • Be in complete control of your own patient information

    You no longer have to rely on an external agency to provide you with your own summarised patient data

    Investigate and identify population health issues that are specific to your own practice

    Population data does not leave the practice without your consent

    Push bulk reminders and recalls to mail merge or SMS

    Don't be restricted by set searches, use CAT to form your own ad hoc queries

  • Identify patients in high risk target groups

    Identify who your patients are that are NOT diagnosed with Diabetes or CHD, yet... are 45 years and over, and are smokers, and are overweight, and have an elevated BP

    Identify which of your patients with diabetes and CHD are smokers and overweight

    Instantly produce your Diabetes and CHD registers

    Quickly and easily undertake population searches to identify undiagnosed chronic disease patients with significant or multiple risk factors

    Identify patients with specific medication and condition co-morbidities (eg. who are my CHD patients taking Warfarin and Aspirin?)

  • Improve practice revenue

    Identify outstanding Diabetes Cycle of Care items for each of your diabetic patients

    Identify your eligible female patients who have not had a Pap Smear in 4 years or more

    Identify which patients are appropriate for immunisations enabling you to call them into the practice and generate revenue

    Create a list of patients who are eligible for the 45-49 year old health check and recall them month by month

    By exploring your practice population you can identify the tasks that might be completed by an additional practice nurse. CAT is a ready-made business case!

  • Meet accreditation requirements

    Be able to show how you address the management of chronic conditions, including identifying high risk patients

    Undertake 'rapid' CPD or PDSA activities to explore how your practice can address gaps in care

    Ensure that your allergy recorded status is above 90%

    Ensure that your patient demographic information is entered and correct

    Address health summary information such as current health problems, risk factors and immunisation
